008 Three Rings Warning
Because of the addition of Hercules, the construction of the embankment went exceptionally smoothly, and after relaxing, everyone lay directly on the embankment without any scruples, and the content of the small talk was all about the hero who suddenly killed Quarin Lin.
Rong Heng didn't, his eyes were glued to Ji Baichu beside him.
How could Ji Baichu, who was closing her eyes and pretending to sleep, not feel this hot gaze, she was going to ignore it to the end, but ......
"Brother Bai Chu, am I very powerful?"
"It's amazing." Ji Baichu responded perfunctorily.
"Shouldn't there be a reward?"
"What do you want?"
"I want Brother Bai Chu to kiss me......"
"Let's go back to eat, Lord Yi will prepare braised pork today, everyone go back and eat two more bowls of rice, and sell more strength in the afternoon!"
Seeing that Ji Baichu, who was about to fall asleep, stood up from the ground as soon as he was bone, walking back like a fly, looking carefully, there was a hint of running away.
Everyone wants to laugh but doesn't dare to laugh, so they can only obediently go back to eat, and the braised pork is still very attractive.
The main task is to resettle the villagers on both sides of the river, if it rains every day in the future flood season, the seam and repair of the embankment will not take a few days, and the main thing is to rely on dredging, after all, the reservoir storage is about to run out......
During the rainy season, the rain went fast and came quickly, and it began again without warning, and the clothes on my body never dried.
Ji Baichu stood under the grass hut and looked in the direction of the reservoir, the distant scenery had long been blocked by the thick fog, and the vast expanse was gray.
"Brother Bai Chu, what are you looking at?" Lin Lin raised her head and smiled, showing her true colors as a nymphomaniac.
"Look, today will definitely be a day of celebration for the whole world." Ji Baichu replied slowly.
Hearing this, Lin Lin frowned inexplicably, and wanted to ask more, but saw that the people had already led a group of well-fed soldiers towards the reservoir.
"Brother Bai Chu, wait for me!"
Ji Baichu didn't look back, but Rong Heng glanced back at Lin Lin.
He thought, judging from his appearance, he might not necessarily lose to Ji Baichu, but this Lin Lin, who came out of nowhere, fell in love with Ji Baichu at a glance, and he couldn't help but be suspicious.
"After this matter is over, Lin Lin, will you also bring it back to the palace?"
"Maybe." Ji Baichu replied absent-mindedly.
"The palace is not a place where anyone can enter!" Rong Heng's tone suddenly sharpened.
Ji Baichu frowned unhappily, "In the eyes of His Highness, who is Lin Lin?" It doesn't matter what Her Highness thinks of Lin Lin, in my place, she is much more worry-free than some people. ”
"You dare to say that I don't have her worries?" Rong Heng said this sentence with a stiff face, and felt that something was wrong, how much he lowered his value to be compared to a mountain woman!
But it was too late to regret it, he collected his emotions a little, and said: "I don't care what you think, but depending on her temperament, entering the palace is not necessarily a good thing." ”
Ji Baichu hooked his lips and said slowly: "It seems that His Highness likes to worry about others as always, so I hope that when I dig the reservoir for a while, I can make more efforts." ”
"I don't need you to remind me, I know how to help!" Rong Heng snorted coldly and stopped making a sound.
Maybe he was stimulated here by Ji Baichu, and after arriving at the reservoir, Rong Heng's enthusiasm was very great, as if he was not digging the reservoir, but Ji Baichu's grave.
Tsk, that's tragic.
The rain gradually increased, and seeing that the widened river channel was about to be unable to support the increased water level, most of the people were still reinforcing the embankment, while Ji Baichu and Rong Heng led a small number of people to dig the reservoir downstream.
As long as the reservoir and the Lingjiang River are dug up one kilometer away, even if the river is not as wide as the river channel, fortunately, there are many tributaries and a wide river basin, which will surely share most of the waterlogging pressure in the south of the Yangtze River.
"Bang ——!"
Suddenly, a signal flare exploded in the sky, making a muffled sound, and everyone squatting in the reservoir showed a solemn expression, and even increased the speed of their hands.
They had already agreed to use the situation of the levee as a warning: with a sound, the rain was about to overflow the river; There were two sounds, and the rain had overflowed the river; There were three sounds, and the embankment was washed away.
When the second sound sounded, everyone didn't dare to stop, seeing that the Lingjiang River was getting closer and closer, it seemed that the next spade could be opened, and they all wanted to turn into loaches and drill through this short river.
When the third sound sounded, they still didn't mean to stop, Ji Baichu threw off the shovel in his hand and shouted: "All go ashore for Lord Ben!" ”
After speaking, he grabbed Lin Lin, who was still working hard, and warned in a low voice: "Hurry up!" If you die here, I won't save you! ”
Lin Lin really shrunk his neck in fear, and easily pulled out two soldiers who were not afraid of death, and the rest were also kicked and dragged ashore by Lin Lin.
After doing this, Lin Lin was so tired that she gasped, and subconsciously turned around to find Ji Baichu to praise, but found that Ji Baichu and Rong Heng were about to fight, and she was so angry that she wanted to rush down and slap Rong Heng twice, but she quickly calmed down and became angry, but she didn't take any practical action.
She hasn't forgotten what she's here for, if she delays her progress, she will be chopped up and fed to Jiuci.
"Rong Heng, what kind of temper are you making? Is now the time for you to make a mistake? Hurry up and get up to me! ”
The lily hat on Ji Baichu's head has been beaten off by the wind and rain, and the rain curtain that has been dense weaves a big net, strangling her breathlessly, if it weren't for the excessive physical exertion, she would have knocked out this disobedient bear child and taken it away!
Rong Heng was still stubbornly wiping the rain from his face, and his dark blue eyes looked firmly at the hoe that kept digging, "Don't worry about me!" You go up first, and I'll go up when I'm done digging. ”
"These innocuous words should be left for later, follow me first." Ji Baichu grabbed Rong Heng's arm without saying anything.
Rong Heng was really insistent this time, maybe it was because the desire to impress Ji Baichu these days was too strong, and he wanted to prove that he was useful, so Ji Baichu really didn't move him.
"Boom ——!"
"The flood is coming!"
A thunderous explosion drowned out the cries coming from the shore, Ji Baichu suddenly looked at the approaching flood, and directly kicked off the hoe in Rong Heng's hand with a low curse, "Don't go!" Die for this! ”
After speaking, Rong Heng felt that his wrist was welded by an iron tongs, and he rose into the air, slid not far and planted into the Lingjiang River.
Everything happened so fast that there was no time to react.
The red in front of his eyes slowly faded, and the shackles on his wrists gradually loosened, until his back bottomed out, and Rong Heng recovered from the impact just now.
never thought that at a critical juncture, it was Ji Baichu who sacrificed his life to block the flood and save his life! No, in fact, it was Ji Baichu who saved him all the .......
He forcibly suppressed the turbulent waves in his heart, and with a slight curl of the blue fishtail flowing with a blurry light, he took the unconscious Ji Baichu against the current into his arms......
